Happy Friday! Welcome to another issue of the Spotify Newsletter! It’s another week of news for the streaming music behemoth. Another week of nothing earth-shattering in the news department, but not too shabby with the amount of quality links we scooped up to make sure we’re all up-to-date on all things Spotify.

⭐️ Yet Again, Blackpink Proves Their Immense Popularity On Spotify In Dramatic Fashion
Earlier this week, Blackpink broke barriers and made very important history on Spotify, as their biggest hit yet (in some respects) reached a very impressive milestone. Now, just a matter of hours after they did what none before them had managed, the band accomplished the same feat a second time, proving themselves to be one of the most popular acts on the planet yet again.
⭐️ Sleep Fruits Music: ‘The craziest thing I’ve ever seen on Spotify’
Apparently Spotify has a ‘King of Sleep Music’, although sadly that isn’t (yet) a job title for an employee curating white-noise and wave-sounds playlists for the streaming service. No, according to Rolling Stone, the reigning monarch of Spotify slumber-songs is an account called Sleep Fruits Music. “The craziest thing I’ve ever seen on Spotify,” as one interviewee put it.
